RECIPROCITY AND HORSES.
Mr. It R. Hay, of Lietowel, siren -
known to many of our readers, gives
his opinion on reciprocity in the Listow-
el Banner as follows:—
Listowel's leading horse buyer, Mr.
R. R. Hay, who has shipped more
horses front this section of Ontario
than probably any other One man, is
working hard for the passage of the
Reciprocity agreement and says it will
he the biggest thing for the Ontario
farmers of any measure passed in re -
Cent -time. He believes the farmers
will be blind to their own interests if
they do not vote for it, and says it
meaes the opening up of a large and
profitable market for our horses in the
Eastern Statefor ' Canadian horses.
The prices for horses there are eoe-
siderably higher than in Ontario, and
Mr. Hay says they can even pay a
duty of $45 and over a head and still
Make money. We were shovel a letter
from Mr. George Climie, of the Cana-
dian Horse Repository at Montreal,
well known in Listowel loosilty, ads
dressed to Mr. Hay, which bears out
Mr. Ilay's statemeet Mr. Climie says:-
-"/ sold to -day, to go to the State of
Vermont, a hutch of horses for a big
firm there, They have to pay a big
duty on the horses coating $266 at Lis-
towel. They say if Iteciptatity earrieg
We will be Ale to do a large business
with them."
Before another issue of the TIMES
reaches the majority of its readers the
Dominion general elections will be a
thing of the past. Both candidates in
East Huron, with their supporters,
have been very active in the work of
the campaign during the past few
weeks. , With the question of reciproc-
ity as the issue before the electors the
chances for the election of Mr. Arch.
Hislop, the Liberal candidate, should
be very bright. Both political parties
have for years been striving to obtain
an agreement of reciprocity with the
United States and now when we have
the chance of obtaining this long
sought -for agreement the electors of
East Heron should embrace the oppor-
tunity .and vote for Mr. Hislop and
send a representative to Ottawa who
will support the Laurier Government
and secure the passing of • the reci-
procity- agreement. Mr. Hislop has
had a number of years of parliament-
ary experience as a member of the On-
tario Legislature and will make an
Iex—
eellent man to send to Ottawa as the
representative from East Huron. The
electors of East Huron whoare in favor
of reciprocity should see that evety
available vote is polled on the 21st of
September. By a united effort on the
part of every reciprocity elector in the
riding there is no doubt that Mr. His-
lop will be the successful candidate.
